Here is an old hand gathered sulphide marble with an enclosed figure of a running rabbit. The figure is very well centered it's a little off toward the rear. The single pontil mark is in front of the figure and can best be seen in the second picture. There are attached air bubbles that partially obscure some of the detailing. A combination of all the pictures should give you a good idea of what you're getting.
CONDITION: NEAR MINT 8.8 There are no cracks, chips, or missing glass, just some tiny pinpricks here and there and some very light wear. Most of the tiny specs you see in the pictures are sub-surface air bubbles. You may click here to view the grading system I use. | |||||
